6 Clams.
This invention relates to shoes for well pipes and particularly to shoes for use on pipes which are to be cemented in a well bore.
In conventional methods of cementing pipe strings in a well, the pipe to be cemented is normally provided at its lower end with a device, commonly termed a "float shoe" in the cementing, art. A conventional float shoe generally comprises a hollow body rounded at its lower end to form a guide for the lower end of the pipe and having one or more fluid passageways through the wall thereof for the discharge of cement or other fluid from the bore of the pipe into the annular space between the pipe and the well bore. A back-pressure check valve of conventional design -is ordinarily installed in the bore of the shoe to prevent return flow of cement or other fluid from the annular space into the interior of the pipe.
Well bores in which a pipe is to be cemented will normally be filled with drilling mud or other fluid and when a pipe string fltted with a conventional shoe is inserted in the well bore, the check valve will prevent entrance of such fluid into the interior of the pipe string and will render the pipe buoyant in the fluid, hence the term "float shoe. The pipe string must, therefore, be loaded with other fluid to overcome this buoyancy to permit the pipe string to sink into the well bore and to balance the external fluid pressure to prevent Collapse of the pipe. This operation necessarily involves delay and added operations to effectively snk the pipe string into the well bore. Also, the loading fluid may often be of different character than the fluid initially present in the well and when displaced into the well bore during the course of the cementing Operations, may have deleterious eflects upon the wall of the well bore, particularly in open hole cementing, which may adversely affect the character of the bond subsequently formed between the cement and the wall of the well bore. Still another serious objection to the use of conventional float shoes arises from the piston efect produced on the fluids in the well bore when a pipe, having its lower end closed by such a shoe, is lowered in the well. The close clearances ordinarily provided between the inserted pipe and the well bore, or intermediate pipe string, and the usually viscous nature of the mud fluids in the well are generally responsible for producing this effect which, particularly in the case of long strings of pipe, may' result in the exertion of great pressures on the fluid trapped below the conventional float shoe. s Un- (CI. ISS- 1) 2 der the pressures thus developed, the viscous mud fluids may be forced so deeply into the pores and crevices of the surrounding formations, particularly those from which oil or gas production is sought, as to entirely or partially plug these formations to an extent such that when the pressure is eventually relieved, the oil or gas cannot escape into the well and may result in failure of the well to produce successfully.` y
The present invention has for its principal object the provision of a shoe for well pipes having a novel form of flexible crifice therein through which fluid present in the well bore is admitted at a regulated rate into the pipe string to fill the stringas the pipe is lowered into the well.
An important object is the provision of a pipe shoe having a flexible orifice which will automatically close in response to excessive velocities of fluid flow therethrough.
Other and more specific objects and advantages of this invention will become apparent from the following detailed description when read in conjunction with the accompanying drawings which illustrate a useful embodiment in accordance with this invention.
In the drawings:
Fig. 1 is a longitudinal sectional View of the shoe, showing it connected to the end of a pipe inserted in a well; and
Fig. 2 is an exploded View showing the parts of the shoe in quarter-sectional elevation.
Referring to the drawings, the shoe in accordance with this invention comprises a tubular body o having an internally threaded box ll at one end for connection to a pipe l2. An externally threaded ring !3 having an axial passageway !4 therethrough is adapted to be screwed into the bottom of box H and to seat against an annular shoulder l5 therein. Ring !3 has a cylindrical extension !6 extending into the bore l'! of body I!) below the bottom of box i a fiuid-tight and mechanically strong connecand tapering downwardly to an orifice 24 which. extends axially through the apex of nozzle 20 Nozzle 20 has an l and provides communication between: bore* 723 i and the interier of bore I'I below lip 22. Nozzle 20 is thus provided with flexible walls 25 which taper inwardly and downwardly insrbore -l'|.`
The lower end of body I& is threaded at 25 for the attachment of a housing or cage 21 which is closed at its lower end .and is adapted to encloser'nozzle '2 A=`plu`rality i of' fluid passage'- ways, 281 extend through the walls of cage 21 'to providecommunication between the? exterior and interier 'thereof be -provided-with a plurality of downwardly directed radial flanges 29 which may be sharpened, asat'3-', to formxcutting or millingiteeth forsthelower *end of the cage.
The lower end` of Cage'Z'may Theeabove described device: is empl'oyed in the l following manner: :Che shoe is assembled and connectedr'toi thellowerend oipipe !2, as illustrated-inFig. 1. Thepipe string is then inserted into-a wellbore 3! which willordinarily be filled with .mud fluid. Asthe pipe enters the fluid, the
latteri'flows through 'passageways 28 nd ent r -C.
the' interior ofcage`2'i. The entering fluid will exert pressure against lip 22 due to the resistance' set up by the restricted area of orifice 24, and will expand lip `22'tightly against the wall of bore I 1, threby constraining the fluid to flow through orifice 24 in order 'tol'enter the interior of the pipe 'string." Th rate'at which the fluid will flowbackthrough orice 24 'willnecessarily be determined by its area and the back pressure of th'e fiuid; The restriction formed by orifice 24 will necessarily develop back pressure on the fluid which will be governed largely by the Velocity at which the pipe string is lowered through the fluid; This back pressure will,` of course, be exerted' against the exterior of walls 25 of the ori- Since walls 25 are' fiexible and infice nozzle. wardly tapered, 'as llustrated, when the fluid pressure'thusexerted against the exterior of the Walls exceeds some critical pressure, depending upon the fiexn strength of walls 25, the walls will be caused tocollapse inwardly and will thereby' effectively shut-off bore 23. will'be evident that; if pipe l2 is lowered into Accordingly', it
the' well at an eXcessiVe velocity, the nozzlewalls' will promptly`collapse, shutting off the entrance oftfluid into the pipe and immediately stop further descent oi the pipe. If the rate of descent of :the pipe is then reduced sufiiciently, the natural'resilience of'walls 25 Will cause them to expand and again admit fluid to the interier of the pipepand permit further descent of the pipe into' the l Well.
Itiwill be seen, therefore, that by means of this novel 'form of orifice nozzle, a, pipe string may be lowered .into` a well bore full of fluid at a regulated rate' which permits the pipe to fill up with the' fluid in the well at a controlled rate and which will eliminate the necessity for the loading Operations, heretofore required and which will, at thezsame time, eliminate the pisten efiect on the surrounding earth formations produced by the use of conventional float shoes. At the same time, the pipe string may be lowered into the well at any desired speed, depending largely upon the area of orifice 24, and the collapsing strength of walls 25. The area of orifice 24 will be determined generally in some suitable relation to the area of the pipe string which is calculated to allow the pipe to sink at a desired speed below which the resulting velocity pressure exerted against walls 25 of the nozzle will be less than the collapsing strength of nozzle.
When a pipe equipped with the above-described 'orifice 'shoe has been lowered, as described, to the desired depth in a well, cement or'other fluid' may be forced through the interior of the pipe andpa'ss through nozzle 20 and thence through passageways 28 into the annular space between the pipe and the well bore in the conventional manner. In cementing Operations, the Shoe-in accordance* with this invention may be used with cementing plugs, such as those 'described in my co -pending applications, Serial Nos. 43297 and 46,221, filed August 9, 1948 and August 26,'1948, respectively, which are designed to serve s asee'ctive back-pressure valves to prevent ref-: turn flow`=of cement or otherfluid from the' an- Alter-J- natively,'--the orifice shoe herein described may' nular space to the' interier of' the pipe.

It 'will be understood that various changes and alterations may be` made in the details of the illustrativ'e embodiment herein described without departing from the scope of'the appended claims but within the spirit of this invention.
